but now they look like well seasoned cookware. the smallest pot is handle-heavy and tends to tip. I nearly burned myself one time when it toppled and hot fluid flew. Farberware can do better, they are the tried and true. Just adjust and balance the weight on that smallest pot and I would say it is a decent set. I love the glass tops/lids, but the handles DO get hot. Perfect popcorn in these babies. The middle pot makes beautiful popcorn, with about a 1/4 cup of kernels. Good quality otherwise. They were pristine at first but after a year or two in our place, we've beat them up pretty good!

Happy to have made the switch from non-stick to stainless. I will say that the lids are a little odd and the lip of one bent when it was dropped in the sink. Aside from that, very happy with my purchase.

This is a wonderful cookware set for the price. The pieces are a good weight with thick bottoms. The pans heat up incredibly fast. I'm used to cooking with cast iron skillets and wow, what a change this was! No more standing around for 5 minutes waiting on my pans to get hot enough to cook with. The handles on these do not get hot, even when I used the hottest setting on my stove. So far there's no discoloration and they clean incredibly easily. I can't imagine paying hundreds (or thousands!) of dollars for a stainless steel cookware set when I know how fantastic this set is.

This is a decent lower priced stainless cookware. It's definitely not as well made as the 'Emeril' cookware I've bought before, though. It does have a heavy disc on the bottom to distribute heat. However, the sides of the cookware are not thick, and the disc just stops abruptly. What I notice is that every utensil tends to stick and burn right where the disc quits.
However, the most disappointing aspect of this cookware is the inside finish. It ain't smooth. Unlike my 'Emeril' pots and pans, the process where the pots/pans are finished on the inside is very visible and isn't completely smooth. No, nothing like a Circulon, but not smooth, either. What happens with this is that food tends to stick with those swirls.
My mom's old Farberware lasted for all of my growing up and until she died. It's a shame that they've just turned their name over to the Chinese to make indifferent products. But, isn't it the way of most of our industries?

I just got a new Induction top stove and none of my current pots or pans worked. I bought this set and was surprised at the quality for the money. I got a 10 piece set for what 1 or 2 pans would normally cost. I'm very happy with the set.

this cookware set at this price is unbeatable! my boyfriend and i just moved into our new shiny apartment and these new shiny pots and pans fit perfectly. Just make sure you always use oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking!

I like these pots! I bought an inductive cooktop and none of my existing pots would work with it. I found these, and thought that even if they weren't great, the set was less than $100. I was pleasantly surprised when they arrived! The finish is mirror-like, they are heavy-bottomed, have sturdy, riveted-on handles, and really dressed up my kitchen. My only complaint is that the lids don't seal very well, and overhang the edge of the pot. When cooking with a lid on, steam blows out of the area where the lid meets the pot, condenses in the cooler air, and water drips down onto my cooktop. My Martha Stewart pot lid has a steam vent in the top to relieve the pressure and keep steam from blowing out the lid/pot joint. These lids do not. Even with this flaw, I still think I did good for the money I spent on the set. I would buy them again.

Thank you for contacting us juanarae. Unfortunately this set only comes as show. I added below the link to all the ones int he same brand. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
